The E5 is priced at £27,505 in Pure trim or £30,505 in Luxury trim.
Being electric, it has a bearable benefit-in-kind tax rating.
It’s pretty well equipped in its base form, with the upper spec adding a huge glass roof, Sony audio, powered, vented and heated seats and a powered bootlid.
Trim levels and equipment largely mirror those of the 5, with the exception that the Luxury trim comes with a Pet Mode, which lets you set the climate control so you can you leave an animal in the car and the screen displays ‘Pet Mode’ in big letters so nobody breaks your windows.
There’s also a Camping Mode, which lets you play audio and even do karaoke through a loud under-bonnet speaker, encouraging fellow campers to want to break your windows.
Other than paint colour (white free, anything else £500, two-tone £1000), you don’t get any options.
It’s a straightforward offering, and Jaecoo has more than 80 dealers already offering it.
